The  widespread  interest  displayed  in  tlie  announcement  of  the  dis- 
persal of  Mr.  Hubbard's  extensive  and  well-cliosen  collection  of  books 
relating  to  America,  bears  ample  testimony  to  the  esteem  in  which  it 
is  held  In-  collectors  and  bibliophiles  the  country  over.  There  have 
been.  ]icrhaps.  brought  under  the  hammer  in  recent  years  collections 
containing  a  larger  number  of  conspicuous  rarities  and  more  full  on 
books  relating  to  particular  sections  of  the  older  parts  of  the  United 
States :  but  it  is  not  easy  to  point  to  a  sales  catalogue  issued  within 
the  last  decade,  in  which  is  to  be  found  a  more  comprehensive  and 
well  rounded-out  assemblage  of  rare  books  encompassing  in  a  general 
way  the  discovery,  early  exploration,  colonization  and  settlement  of 
lioth  continents  of  the  Western  hemisphere. 

In  the  s])?;ial  department  of  books  on  tlie  \\'est — that  vast  and 
interesting  region  extending  from  the  borders  of  the  older  settle- 
ments along  the  Atlantic  seaboard  to  the  Pacific  Coast — Mr.  Hubbard's 
collection  is  particularly  rich ;  and  will,  perhaps,  be  long  remembered 
as  the  first  great  collection  of  the  kind  ever  oft'ered  for  sale,  the  first 
in  wliicli  tlie  number  and  rarity  of  the  items  included  were  in  any 
way  connnensurate  with  the  importance  of  the  subject. 

.\n  examination  of  sales  records  during  the  i^ast  tliirty  years  for 
prices  realized  l\v  books  and  pamphlets  in  this  class,  is  sure  to  reveal 
an  astonishing  lack  of  judgment  en  the  part  of  collectors  and  auction 
house  habitues  during  that  time.  Few  there  were  it  stems  who  were 
aware  what  opportunities  were  passing  away.  Few  there  were  also 
who  realized,  while  accounts  of  the  earlier  voyages  across  the  Atlantic 
were  bringing  fabulous  prices  in  the  market,  that  those  narratives  of 
the  first  expeditions  to  the  remoter  parts  of  the  continent  of  America 
itself,  would  also  at  a  later  day  become  eagerly  sought  after  by  a 
new  generation  of  collectors  sprung  up  amidst  the  wealth  and  literary 
culture  of  the  territories  but  recently  explored.  And  it  is  perhaps 
owing  to  this  untimeh'  neglect,  that  books  on  the  early  history  of  the 
West,  now  that  they  are  called  for  in  every  direction  are  no  longer  to 
be   had  in   sufficient  quantities  to  supply  the  demand. 

To  suggest,  however,  that  Mr.  Hubbard  confined  his  purchases  ex- 
clusively to  books  on  the  ^^'est  would  be  to  convey  an  erroneous  im- 
pression. On  the  contrary,  as  has  been  stated,  he  sought  to  cover  the 
entire  range  of  American  History  in  its  broadest  sense  as  will  be  seen 
by  a  perusal  of  the  following  pages. 

Xew  Fr.\xce  and  Caxad.v  are  liberally  represented.  Among  works 
on  this  widely  extended  region  are  the  writings  of  Champlain,  Lescar- 
bot,  Charlevoix,  Le  Clercq,  the  Jesuit  Relations,  La  Hontan  (repre- 
sented in  a  long  series  of  original  and  important  editions  in  French, 
Dutch  and  English),  Bressani,  Du  Creux.  ]\Iargry,  Bacqueville  de  la 
Potherie,  Smith,  Heriot,  Vancouver,  Palliser,  and  a  number  of  the 
more  recent  authors  on  the  far  Western  parts  of  the  Dominion. 

Mexico,  Central  axd  South  Americ.v.  A  large  portion  of  the 
library  is  composed  of  works  relating  to  the  republics  of  Latin  America, 
among  which  may  be  mentioned   Las   Casas.  Acosta.   Cortes,   Eenzoni,

Herrera.  Clavigero,  Diaz  de  Castillo,  Gomara,  De  Solis,  T.  Gage, 
Zarate,  Garcilaso  de  la  Vega,  D'Acugna,  Grynaeus,  Juan  and  Ulloa, 
La  Condamine,  etc. 

Among  the  rarer  books  relating  to  the  older  settlements  of  the 
East  are :  Wassenaer's  "Historisch  Verhael,"  containing  the  earliest 
printed  reports  of  transactions  in  the  New  Netherlands,  1623,  the 
original  Dutch  edition  of  "Kort  en  Bondigh  Verhael,"  with  a  con- 
temporary account  of  the  loss  of  New  Netherlands  to  the  English,  the

Massachusetts  complete,  an  important  series  of  rare  books  relating 
to  the  State  of  Maine,  collections  of  Historical  Societies,  and  a  fine 
copy  of  the  original  Paris  edition  of  Jefferson's  Notes  on  Virginia. 

The  Western  States  and  American  Aborigines.  Bowles'  Authen- 
tic Memoirs.  1791;  Carver's  Travels  (several  edns.)  ;  Catlin's  Indians,

colored  copy;  Hopkins'  Housatannuk  Indians,  Boston,  1753;  Hub- 
bard's Indian  Wars,  London,  1677 ;  Long's  Expedition,  with  the  Atlas ;

kinson's Memoirs,  with  the  Atlas ;  Wyeth's  "Short  History  of  a  Long 
Journey,"  etc.  The  above  titles  are  chosen  at  random  and  are  not  to 
be  taken  as  giving  more  than  a  representative  selection  of  some  of 
the  .'^career  items. 

The  Library  also  contains  a  collection  of  books  on  Mushrooms  and 
other  branches  of  Natural  History  including  Audubon's  Birds  (1st  8vo 
edn.i.  Sargent's  North  American  Silva,  works  illustrated  by  the 
Bewicks,  a  long  run  of  rare  and  important  editions  of  Walton's  Com- 
pleat Angler  and  an  Illuminated  Manuscript  Hours  of  the  Virgin, 
Paris.  1500. 

It  has  been  our  good  fortune  in  the  past  to  assist  in  the  handling 
of  many  important  and  valuable  collections  of  rare  books;  and  it  is 
with  pleasure  we  inform  our  patrons  that  we  do  not  remember 
ever  to  have  surveyed  a  library  of  Americana  as  a  whole  in  which  the 
condition  of  the  volumes  contained  was  superior  to  those  comprising 
Mr.   Ihilibard's  most  interesting:  collection.

whites.     Very  rare.

MERELY    TO    GRATIFY    HIS    CURIOSITY    AND    RECORD    HIS    OBSERVA- 
TIONS. 

"This  rare  book  is  the  work  of  an  Italian  traveller  who,  in- 
cited by  the  wonderful  stories  of  the  world  discovered  by  his 
countryman  fifty  years  before,  adventured  in  1541  to  gain  per- 
sonal knowledge  of  it.  The  Aborigines  of  the  countries  he  visited 
always  seemed  first  to  attract  his  attention  ;  and  he  has  ac- 
cordingly afforded  us  some  of  the  rarest  pictures  of  their  condi- 
tion and  habits  at  that  early  day,  of  which  the  rude  wood-cuts 
printed  in  the  text  are  quaint  but  spirited  illustrations." — Field.

the  facetious  "sty"  cut  (which  does  not  appear  in  later  editions), 
in  a  partially  inked  condition.  The  "Magpie"  cut  has  two 
branches  on  the  stump,  evidently  the  first  state  of  the  plate, 
as  in  some  copies  it  appears  with  only  one  branch,  while 
in  others  it  is  left  out  altogether.  The  letter-press  of  vol.  I 
*  was  written  by  Beilby,  while  owing  to  a  separation  of  partner- 

ship, the  second  vol.  was  written  by  Bewick  himself.  The  best 
of  Bewick's  cuts  appeared  in  the  first  volume  of  the  above,

Of  Excessive  Rarity.  Contains  the  scarce  half-title  and

collections  dispersed  in  this  country.  Mr.  Field  during  his  long 
period  of  collecting  was  unable  to  obtain  a  copy,  although  de- 
scribing one  in  his  bibliography  under  a  star  number  (indicating 
that  he  was  unable  to  obtain  it). 

The  subject  of  this  biographical  sketch  was  the  son  of  a  Bri- 
tish school-master,  who  ran  away  from  home  and  joined  the 
British  army  at  Philadelphia.  Later  being  dismissed  from  the 
service  he  entered  that  of  the  Creeks  and  married  one  of  their 
women.  He  attracted  much  attention  to  himself  in  England, 
whither  he  went  to  enlist  the  interposition  of  the  Crown  in  favor 
of  the  independence  of  the  Creek  Nation  of  Indians. 

Field  says  that  the  book  is  ranked  among  the  rarest  of  works 
relating  to  the  American  Aborigines.

Excessively  rare  original  edition  of  the  first  four

Complete  with  all  the  maps  and  plates,  but  having  the 
larjre  map  in  excellent  facsimile. 

The  present  copy  has,  as  far  as  we  can  ascertain,  a  unique 
feature.  The  editor  or  printer,  having  made  the  mistake  of 
placing  on  page  232  the  descriptive  lettered  references  to  the 
plate  of  the  "Iroquois  Fort,"  which  appears  at  page  25.5,  instead 
of  the  proper  references  to  the  plate  of  the  "Defeat  of  the  Iro- 
quois at  Lake  Champlain"  which  appears  at  page  232,  the  leaf 
was  cancelled  and  reprinted  with  the  correct  references.  This 
copy  contains  both  the  cancelled  and  reprinted  leaves. 
Fine  copy,  handsomely  bound.

LARGE  AND  PEBFECT  COPY,  Complete  with  the  NEW  TESTAMENT

plied   from    another   copy. 

The  present  copy  belonged  to  the  Rev.  Samson  Occom,  a 
famous  Indian  preacher  of  New  England,  and  bears  his  auto- 
graph inscription  twice  repeated  on  the  blank  leaves  at  end  and 
dated  in  his  autograph, — '"Sept.  27.  A.  D.  1748."  Occom  began 
preaching  Christianity  to  his  Indian  brethren  of  Connecticut 
about  this  time  and  it  is  evident  that  he  made  use  of  the  present 
volume  in  his  labors.  Another  inscription  in  a  contemporary 
hand,  reads — ''Purchased  of  the  Rev'd.  Samson  Occom  by 
Thomas  Shatc,  Esq.  of  New  London  and  by  Mm  presented  to

WITH  THE  colophon  and  the  exceedingly  bare  map,  which  ac- 
cording to  Sabin  is  the  original,  with  title,  '^Typvs  Cosmograph- 
icvs  Vniversalis,"  a  border  and  two  inscriptions,  the  first  begin- 
ning with  the  word  ''India''  and  the  other  ''Scytharum."  The 
newly  discovered  world  is  represented  by  a  long  strip  of  land  in 
the  northwest  bearing  the  inscription,  "Terra  de  Cuba."  The 
southern  part  contains  these  words  only,  "Farias,  Canibali,  Amer- 
ica, Terra  Nova,  Prisilia."  The  word  "Asia,"  is  in  larger  type. 
Regarding  this  map  (of  which  there  are  several  variations)  Har- 
risse  says,  "Whether  they  were  the  maps  really  belonging  to  the 
work,  and  described  by  Munster,  we  are  unable  to  say."

acter, is  'The  General  History  of  the  Indies'  by  Antonio  de 
Herrera.  It  embraces  the  period  from  the  first  discovery  of 
America  to  the  year  1545 ;  and  as  Herrera  v^as  a  practised) 
writer,  and  from  his  official  position  as  historiographer  to  the 
Indies,  had  access  to  every  source  of  information  known  in  his

TllK  VEBY  KABLIEST  WORK  EVEU  ISSUED  ADVOCATING  THE  ABOLI- 
TION OK  si.AVEKY  IN  AMERICA,  in  wluoli  are  given,  "twenty  reas- 
ons which  prove  that  the  Indians  ought  not  to  be  given  to  the 
Simiiiards  in  commanderies,  in  feudal  bondage  or  in  vassal- 
age OR  IN  ANY  other  MANNER;  if  His  Majesty  should  desire  to 
free  thoni  from  the  tyranny  and  perdition  which  they  are  suffer- 
ing, as  from  the  jaws  of  dragons,"  etc. 

The  author,  the  first  priest  ever  ordained  in  the  New 
World  and  the  first  to  advocate  the  arolition  of  slavery 
in  America,  accompanied  Columbus  on  his  third  voyage  and 
his  name  "is  second  in  eminence  only  to  that  of  the  great  dis- 
coverer." 

The  present  is  the  rare  original  edition  of  the  third  of  a 
series  of  tracts  by  Las  Casas  published  in  Spain  in  1552-'53. 

From  its  great  historical  importance  the  present  is  probably 
the  most  valuable  of  the  series.

Very'  Rare  and  much  sought  for  on  account  of  the  beauty  of 
the  plates.  This  work,  appearing  46  years  after  the  publication 
of  the  original  works  of  I^as  Casas,  was  no  doubt  intended  to  pre- 
judice the  public  mind  against  the  Spaniards  in  their  war  with 
the  Netherlands,  by  representing  their  inhumanity  and  atrocities 
in  America,  which  the  plates  most  vividly  portray.

Tins  MAGNIFICENT  WOBK  IS  ONE  OF  THE  MOST  IMPORTANT  EVER 

ISSUED  ON  WESTERN  AMERICAN  TRAVEL.  After  Crossing  the 
Alleghanies  to  New  Harmony  via  Pittsburg  and  spending  the 
winter  there,  the  expedition  journeyed  down  the  Ohio  River  and 
up  the  Missouri  to  its  source  on  the  Eastern  slopes  of  the  Oregon 
or  Rocky  Mountains,  halts  being  made  on  the  way  at  St.  Louis, 
Fort  Pierre,  Fort  Clarke,  Fort  Union  and  Fort  Mackenzie.  After 
exploring  the  head  waters  of  the  Missouri  the  expedition  re- 
turned to  Fort  Clarke  where  the  second  winter  was  spent.  From 
Fort  Clarke  it  retraced  its  steps  down  the  Missouri  and  up  the 
Ohio  till  it  reached  Portsmouth  whence  turning  northward  along 
the  Ohio  Canal  it  journeyed  to  Niagara  Falls  via  Cleveland  and 
Buffalo,  thence  along  the  Erie  Canal  and  down  the  Hudson 
River  to  New  York  ;  thus  having  crossed  the  Continent  from  the 
Atlantic  to  the  Rockies  and  back  again,     the  author  gives 

LONG  AND  INTERESTING  DESCRIPTIONS  OF  THE  COUNTRY  TRAVERSED 
AND  THE  TOWNS  AND  VILLAGES  VISITED  en  route,  also  MINUTE 
AND  FAITHFUL  DETAILS  OF  THE  MANNERS  AND  CUSTOMS  OF  THE 
VARIOUS   INDIAN   TRIBES   ENCOUNTERED. 

THE  LARGE  AND  BEAUTIFUL  PLATES  which  accompany  the  work 
are  perhaps,  the  most  exquisitely  colored  of  any  that  were 

EVER   ISSUED   ON    AMERICAN   INDIANS    AND   LIFE   ON    THE   PLAINS. 

Forty-nine  of  the  plates  are  illustrative  of  some  phase  in  In- 
dian life  and  character.     The  details  of  the  costumes  of  the 

VARIOUS    TRIBES,    THEIR    WARLIKE   AND    MUSICAL   INSTRUMENTS, 

&c.,  are  given  with  the  utmost  minuteness,  the  bison,  dog, 
SCALP  AND  other  DANCES,  ALSO  HUNTING  SCENES,  are  depicted 
in  the  most  spirited  manner  and  the  extraordinary  natural 
features  of  the  country  are  faithfully  delineated.  In  addition 
to  THE  PLATES  OF  INDIAN  LIFE  there  are  elegant  views  of  bos- 
ton HARBOL'B,  BETHLEHAM,  new  harmony,  the  YELLOWSTONE 
REGION,     NIAGARA    FALLS.     NEW    YORK    BAY,    and    FORTS    PIEBBE, 

UNION.  CLARKE,  and  MACKENZIE,  besides  numerous  other  places. 
Copies  of  this  rare  work  comprising  a  single  set  of  the  text  and 
the  folio  volume  of  illustrations,  uncolored,  are  occasionally  to  be 
kad ;  though  complete  with  the  three  series  of  text  and  the 
PLATES  Ricin.y  colored,  as  above,  it  is  of  the  utmost  rarity.

[QiTEBEC:]    Printed    |by   Willi.vm    I^rowx]    in    the   Year 

:\[DCCLXXX  (1780). 

Ok  Excessive  Rakity.    Fine  perfect  copy. 

The  text  is  i)i'inted  entirely  in  the  Moliawk  languaae,  except 
the  hendinjrs.  which  are  in  Mohawlc  and  English.  I'aj^es  V,)Q- 
20S  contain  "I'art  of  the  Singing  Psalms." 

The  first  i)rinting  in  Canada  was  done  by  William  Brown,  who 
established  a  i)ress  in  lTf>'>-'(>4,  in  Qnebec.  He  associated  with 
him  'J''h()mas  Gilmore.  who  died  in  ITTo.  and  Brown  continned 
the  business  alone  and  at  the  date  of  the  above  publication 
(1780)  was  the  only  printer  in  Quebec. 

Very  few  of  the  edition  of  1769  remained  among  the  Mohawks 
when  they  retired  to  Canada  in  1777.  Apprehensive  that  the 
book  might  be  wholly  lost  in  a  little  while,  and  desirous  of  a  new 
supply,  these  Indians  petitioned  General  Haldimand,  then  the 
Governor  of  that  Province,  for  a  new  edition.  This  request  was 
granted  and  1,000  copies  were  ordered  printed  under  the  super- 
vision of  Colonel  Claus,  who,  the  Preface  states,  read  and  under- 
stood the  Mohawk  language. 

Col.  Claus  was  probably  a  native  of  the  Mohawk  Valley,  where 
he  acquired,  in  early  life,  a  knowledge  of  the  Iroquois  language, 
and  was  in  consequence  attached  as  Interpreter  to  the  depart- 
ment of  Gen.  Johnson.

The  author,  having  been  mobbed  as  a  Royalist  during  the  Revo- 
lution, fled  to  England,  where  he  remained  till  1805.  His  His- 
tory of  Connecticut,  which  is  a  remarkable  tissue  of  misstate- 
ments and  exaggerations,  is  very  severe  in  its  reflections  upon  the 
inhabitants  of  Connecticut,  to  whom  he  attributes  some  fictitious 
"Blue  Laws."  It  also  contains  a  cl'Rlors  account  of  'bund- 
ling,' and  a  description  of  a  midnight  invasion  of  Windham  by 
frogs,  and  the  consequent  terror  and  flight  of  the  inhabitants. 
t  Speaking  of  the  Upper  Cohoes  Falls,  he  says  :  "Here  water  is 

consolidated,  without  frost,  by  pressure,  by  swiftness,  between 
the  pinching,  sturdy  rocks,  to  such  a  degree  of  induration,  that 
no  iron  crow  can  be  forced  into  it ;  here  iron,  lead,  and  cork,  have 
one  common  weight,"  etc.
